Solexx

After experimenting with corrugated plastic and seeing how well tomato plants grew under the material, Mike and Bev Perry (CEO’s of Adaptive Plastics and founders of Solexx Greenhouses) got the idea to use the panels to design a greenhouse kit. University testing verified that the flutes in the plastic diffuse the light and capture it from various angles – accelerating the growth of plants. From there, with their backgrounds in biology and plant science, they set out to design an affordable, strong, and practical greenhouse for home gardeners – the Solexx Greenhouse.

“My greenhouse held through 75-80 mph winds. And during the freeze and snow the temperature came down to -35° C. All my plants are still growing!” – Chris from Ontario, Canada
